cressy Posted May 1, 2007 Posted May 1, 2007 I've got 4 records on the Dontee label Blendels 100, Contemplations 101, Summits 102, Rock Candy 103 yellow, is there any other releases on this label? Thanks Cressy ps does anybody know what the Blendels 100 is worth nowdays?
George M Posted May 1, 2007 Posted May 1, 2007 Dontee 104 is killer funk, a very unusual record in a "low budget Temptations on drugs" style. There are 5 records on the label as far as I know, though I'd be really interested to know if there were more: 100 Blendells - Did You Mean / You Mean Love (1969) 101 Contemplations - Alone With No Love (vocal) / instrumental (Dontee Studio Band) (1969) 102 Summitts - I Can't Get Over Losing You / I Can't Get Over Losing You (Instrumental with Dontee Studio Band) 103 Rock Candy - I Don't Think I'll Ever Love Another / Alone With No Love (Contemplations) (1971) 104 Blendels - Beware / Instrumental (taken from dcsoulrecordings.com)

Quinvy Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 That's the loonie Manship auction price though, surely it's not actually "worth" that much... I'd have thought so, supposed to be a rare one. £3k in Mr. Browns book.

Guest Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) That's the loonie Manship auction price though, surely it's not actually "worth" that much... We were hoping for upwards of £2500 .... so we considered it went for a looney LOW price.. it's very rare and both sides are awesome.. Be aware there are Bootlegs of this 45 that is perhaps giving a "misreading" on how rare the original really is.. Edited May 5, 2007 by john manship
